A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

The following computer-generated description may contain errors and does not represent the quality of the book.

As the title indicates, this book deals with the chemistry of everyday affairs. It is designed to meet the growing demand that high school courses should prepare the pupil for citizenship. In other words, the book is planned for that large number of students who are limited to a single course in chemistry. The facts and principles of such a course should be of practical use throughout life. In an endeavor to meet the varying needs of such students, a wide range of topics has been treated. This will enable the teacher to select a course best suited to the requirements of his community. To this end, particular attention has been given to the chemistry needed for the first courses in industrial, technical, and agricultural schools, as well as in those teaching domestic science. It is expected that most schools will cover Part I, as this deals with such fundamental ideas and principles as chemical changes; acids, bases, and salts; weight relations; chemical nomenclature; solution; oxidation and combustion. Moreover, Part I contains practical topics of universal interest, such as the chemistry of heating and lighting; air and ventilation; water and its purification; properties of metals; and food values. Part II supplies additional material for courses adapted to special needs. The authors have striven to group a large amount of interesting information around scientific principles, and to make it both usable and scientifically accurate. Prom this second part, the teacher can select the chapters best adapted to the needs of his particular school.
